About Me

My photo
Lachlan
I've been in pearls, madras, topsiders and various tartans n' taffeta frocks since I can remember... Absolutely love my family, travel, entertaining, outdoor sports especially fly fishing, kayaking, skiing and sport shooting, the arts, antiques, history, literature and a good dose of philosophy here n' there. Festivity is something I enjoy in life with being a former cheerleader, sorority girl, double-debutante and Junior Leaguer. Currently I've finished up my Masters in Humanities and am looking into PhD programs. Additionally, I work part-time merchandising for a national retailor and caregive for a parent fulltime. Happily married, 20 years as of this spring, to an international airline captain who is a former classically-trained chef, MBA grad and old-school southern gentleman; how lucky can a girl get? Okay, wheh...you know all about this blog author now...no questions needed eh?! This blog's my fun-writing: something delightful to do usually late at night...enjoy!
